Volunteer Zombies

I started off at my old playground at my elementary school, except the far side hosted abandoned carnival-like equipment that never would have gotten past safety standards. Murphy and someone else who I don’t remember were with me. I repeatedly challenged them to race me to the top of various playground amenities. After this the playground transformed into an art class, and I was given the assignment of painting a statue that wasn’t a dog and making it look like a dog, or if I got a statue of a dog, making it look like a skeleton of a dog. For some reason, the art teacher couldn’t find a statue for me to paint, and the other people I was with left. After this, I ended up in some sort of team-survival game, where I had to run away from something, but that’s all I remember. Then, in another team survival game, I’m transported to Japan. In a stairwell lit with blue fluorescent lights, my team has to shoot ‘zombies’ to stay alive. The ‘zombies’ weren’t attacking us, but were a tightly packed crowd slowly forcing me into a corner. We shot them with laser weapons, and I never saw any of them get hurt. An intermission in the game showed me that all of the ‘zombies’ weren’t wearing makeup, and weren’t great actors. They were a bunch of young Japanese people that were very excited about participating in the game. I think that I was a cat in this dream, because I remember being really short.
